if I wanted to turn them upside down and have the top open for a different purpose than food covering woudl they sit flat?

I don't think they would and stay that way reliably, no, due to the little ring/handle on the top in the center. They are sturdy enough, but I cannot see how they would stay upright if turned upside down and a weight placed on them...unless there were some kind of support added. And I can't imagine what type of support that would entail. What other purpose did you have in mind for them?

Yes. There is a round plastic loop on the top but I just did what you are asking and they sit up fine. They are mesh so you couldn't carry anything of weight in them. Hope this helps

Not completely, as there is a plastic ring on the top (in your scenario, the bottom) used for lifting the cover. Therefore, the ring is in the way of it being a flat surface.

That does not look like an easy task. Maybe before they are assembled? But because they rotate, the apparatus that allows them to turn is in the way of where you'd need to connect the material. Not to say it isn't impossible... But would be very difficult. I love these stools though. Everyone that sits on them, from snooty to down to earth, think they are comfortable and good looking. Hope this helps.

yes, but they would have to be below the lip of the base, not piled high as in picture.

You would just be staking them based on whatever is inside. The side will not stand straight up and hold whatever is on top, the sides would collapse if what is not on the inside is not all the way to the top. I hope this makes sense.

You can, but it will not seat correctly. The holes are slightly tapered and when properly seated press against the entire surface of the plastic seats. When you turn it upside down, only the top rim of the metal hole will press down on the plastic seat. It will work, but that is not how it is supposed to work and a lot of weight on the shelf would probably crack the plastic seat.

The top is domed so I would say "yes" to your question, as long as it wasn't a humongous bird. I've only grilled "flat food" on it.

They are not Rollsble and you can flatten them just not completely flat at the bottom

I always buy large, and they fit in there with jiggle room. The wells where the eggs sit are fairly deep, so I'd think they could fit in there "upside down"

depends on how big your feet are, but if you want them to sit flat on the bottom, probably not.

I think they should lay flat. Mine did but I still didn't think the quality was very good so I returned it.

Unlike with the large ottoman, when you flip the tops of the small ones, you get material and not wood. So, although you can flip them, they weren't meant to be table tops.

I think you could, but the top wouldn't be a flat work surface using the middle tray unless u turned it upside down. Might need to drill a few holes but I think it could work

I'm not sure, but I don't know why you couldn't, especially if you left the covers on upside-down.

not really. The top one will sit on whatever is in the bottom one, rather than the bottom basket itself.

No. You can rotate them so that instead of sitting to the side of the column, they're in front of or behind it, but you can't turn the basket so that it's perpendicular to the floor instead of parallel to it.

They are not truly flat. The bottom is slightly convex. If you tell me your application I may be able to give you a better answer.

No, they won't go flat. I think they are plastic with a rubber layer, or a hard rubber.
